    Um. I did not. I will try that before I do anything else. Glad I posted in here. Thank you for the tip.

    Error code

    I got the compass in today and got it put in real quick. I HAVE A FLYING DRONE!!! I am not sure why but it’s floating around a good bit. Looks like the Q500 body has very slightly different angles than the Q5004k body did. I’m not sure. I’ll see if I can get it trimmed steady tomorrow. Thank...

    I was able to FaceTime a yuneec technician today and he is pretty sure I need a new compass. So I ordered one. Hopefully I find out next week if that’s it.

    Well that did not work. I cut out the bad spots and replaced the wires it is still doing the same thing. I tried uploading a video but it will not let me.

    I messed around and the orange wire is broken in two in one place. So I am going to cut the bad section out of all three of them and replace it with new wire tomorrow.

    Ok I just found this wire. Not sure how I missed it. Do I need to cut an repair that? It’s testing good but that does go to the motor that I was having trouble with.

    Error code

    Putting it back on the GUI there are no other errors. I took the body back apart and don’t see any wires pinched. I put the battery in with the top Half of the body plugged in but not screwed in and tried to turn it on. I’m still getting the same error code.

    I got a used motor and ESC today. The guy gave me the ESC because he had not had the chance to test it. I got the new parts put on and hooked it up to my computer to reprogram the ESC. Once I did everything tested good. I ran the motors everything looked great. Then when I Unplugged the motor...

    Awesome. I found them on eBay for almost 1/3 the price of the one new one I found.

    Need advice

    So I finally found a body for my q500 4K. Once I got it all switched over and back together I attempted to turn it on and it wouldn’t turn on. So I hooked it to my computer to see what was going on. It shows that all the ESC are correct. So I tested the motors. First three spun great. The fourth...

    Prop broke at 190’

    When I get a new body I am going to also get a set of carbon fiber props

    Prop broke at 190’

    No. I never noticed that before. Two of the sets that I have do though. This set does not. This is the set that was on it when I bought it.

    Prop broke at 190’

    I was flying this evening with my daughter and best friend when I saw something black fly off the drone and then it went shooting down really nuts. Got to it and half of the rear B prop was gone. I have been very diligent about inspecting for any weak looking stops before I install them and...

    Q500 freak out?!

    My wife and I were driving beside a stream when we came across a waterfall approximately 1000’ back off the rode. Since I had my q500 with me I hopped out and went to filming. I flew back almost eye level with myself about 400’ towards the waterfall. I had about a 100-150’ opening to go through...
